Should You Try Chinese Herbs For Hair Loss?

Losing your hair can be a devastating thing.  However, all is not lost.  There are many thinning hair remedies that can be successfully utilized.  As you’ve done your research you probably ran across Chinese herbs.  Some people tout these herbs as the answer to hair loss.  I wouldn’t go that far, but there is a growing body of people who have had success with these products.

Chinese herbs try to restore the right pattern of energies in the body.  These herbs are believed to greatly stimulate the hair follicles that result in the growth of hair. Another condition is inflammatory response of the body against acidity due to bad diet, pollution and other toxins and also some kind of infections that have negative effects on the growth of hair. Most of the people suffering from alopecia areata have both the above symptoms.

So, it becomes quite necessary to counter these two evils of acidity and inflammation in order to restore the yin energy that helps in cooling the body and stimulating the hair growth. He Shou Wu, polygonum herb also known as Fo-ti, can effectively treat alopecia aerata. In China this herb is being used for centuries as a treatment for early age loss of hair, graying of hair and also as a tonic for longer life. It has been found that this herb can give a new life to the hair follicles and can act as a great tonic for body & brain together. But it is advisable to wait for 3-6 months before its effects start showing for itself.

According to some research conducted in China, the two herbs, eclipta & lingustrum, can counter the effects of alopecia aearata by restoring the yin energy of the kidney and liver.

Another herb that works very well if utilized together with the above listed herbs is Chinese wolfberries. It stimulates the circulation of blood into the hair follicles and thus helps in hair growth and is also used as a tonic for the whole body.

There are other herbs too that can be consumed in combination to inhibit the causes of alopecia that are acidity & inflammation. The herbs are honeysuckle, mint and dandelion. There are other supplements too that can prove beneficial for hair growth if consumed with the Chinese herbs, like nettle tea, black sesame seeds, vitamin C, black beans and flaxseed oil, which act against the toxicity and inflammation.

Many people rely on Chinese herbs when dealing with the problem of hair loss, as it is a completely  natural way treating hair loss. However, like anything else, chinese herbs will not work for everyone so a little experimentation is required.  Additionally, products like Rogaine, Hair Genesis and Provillus have some good research to support their use.    However, there are more things you should know before you try these products as well.  To find out more simply download the free report below.

What do you know about ‘Tian qi’ ?

Can you answer indefinitely’s question about Ginseng?:

First off, it’s a Chinese herb. It’s like a root, like ginseng. And, I’ve heard so many people talk about how it promotes growth and everything, I know about it helping circulation and cardiovascular health and such but I’m looking for more information on it’s thousand-year-old reputation for promoting growth in height. I would like to see this is writing somewhere. If you have any information, tell me about it and link me to a source. Or you can just verify for me that you’ve heard of this too. Thanks.
Don’t be useless and tell me you don’t know. I couldn’t care less whether you know or not. I don’t understand why kids go on here and post unhelpful responses to questions for the two points. If you know something say it. If not, just keep your mouth shut and stop wasting my time.

Effective Fibromyalgia Chinese Herbs Treatment Options

March 2, 2010 by Ginseng Reviews and Tips  
Filed under Chinese Herbs

Fibromyalgia is often hard to diagnose, and you may find that some doctors will not give that diagnosis at all. The symptoms and problems with this condition are very hard to manage, but there are some things that can help. What works will depend on age and condition, as well as how much work you put into it. There are some lifestyle changes that can help, and there might also be some Fibromyalgia Chinese herbs that can help some with the condition feel better and find more rest.

Medical doctors have very few options when trying to treat Fibromyalgia. This is because it is often skipped over, or the complaints of the patients are not taken seriously. There is little that can be done in the way of medications, though some like to prescribe sleeping pills, pain pills, anti-depressants, or arthritic medications. These can work with varying degrees of success for some patients, but not everyone will find relief. This is when it’s useful to turn to other sources for help, and Chinese herbs may be just what you have been looking for.

Chinese medicine usually first concentrates on helping the overall well-being of a patient. It is believed that by helping the body to boost the immune system, the body can then do some self-healing.

Most medical doctors try to heal just one thing at a time, and it often works well, but in the case of Fibromyalgia, it might help to first concentrate on any auto-immune deficiencies that might be present. They would then treat the various systems of the body that are problematic for people with this condition. This might include the lungs, liver, and muscular system, just to name a few.

Because there are so many different variables when it comes to treating a patient with Fibromyalgia, there really is no list of Chinese herbs that will work for everyone. A practitioner must evaluate the history of the patient, and will need to know much more than what their symptoms are and how long they have had them. They will want to have a life-long medical history of not only the physical body, but the emotional and spiritual part as well. Only when these have been recorded can a true treatment with these herbs begin, and it is often used in conjunction with acupuncture treatments.

It is always a good idea to see someone who practices Chinese medicine before taking any type of herb on your own. You want to be under the care of your medical doctor as well. Some Fibromyalgia Chinese herbs can interact with prescription medications, and the side effects of this could be dangerous. Always let your medical doctor know what you are doing and whom you are seeing for treatment. Though Fibromyalgia Chinese herbs can be an effective alternative form of medicine, they are also very powerful, and it is always a good idea to have someone watching over your treatments from both ends of the spectrum.

Chinese herbal products

Many people are unaware of what the difference between a herb and a plant which can make them a little confused as to which plants can be viewed as herbs and within that which can be viewed as Chinese herbs. A herb is a plant or a part of a plant that is either used or prized for its aromatic or savory properties or for its medicinal properties. The herbs that are seen as being Chinese herbs have increased as the traditional medicine has become more and more widely used in Western society. This has lead to a greater range of different herbs and plants being used in the creation of herbal products, particularly herbal supplements, although they are still created using the same health philosophies. This has lead to an increased amount of different benefits being made available to those people who wish to take advantage of the increased availability of herbal supplements that are created in line with those traditional herb use philosophies.

There are also different variations available of herbs that have been used traditionally that are available to use in combination with the traditional herbs such as ginseng which now has American ginseng being used in addition to traditional ginseng. This is also true of many other herbs and groups of plants that have been in use as part of traditional Chinese herbal treatment. This means that people are gaining access to range of different plants and herbs that can provide different benefits within the body and can help provide support for your health. The different types of herbs and plants that are used in the formulation of the herbal supplements can help to provide a range of different benefits for the person that makes use of them. The inclusion of alternate herbs and plants into traditional recipes that have been used for many years has lead to the creation of improved formulations. These improved formulations can result in more potent effects within the body or a wider range of benefits for the health depending on how the formulation has been improved.

There are some formulations where the traditional plants or herbs have been replaced by their modern counterparts if the counterparts are found to be more effective or potent. These formulas are created so that they maintain the use of traditional Chinese medical philosophies and knowledge gathered through many years This is very evident in some of the formulas that previously included plants that are now far harder to obtain than previously and as such the more effective and available western equivalents have been inserted into the formulation as replacements. There are also Chinese herbs that are use in herbal supplements alongside the modern or Western equivalent where making use of both types can lead to a supplement of increased potency. This can also help to provide a wider range of effects that may prove to be able to provide benefits to a larger range of people.
